John 17:1-5

New Matthew Bible

The most hearty and loving prayer of Christ to his Father for all those who receive the truth.

17 These words Jesus spoke, and lifted up his eyes to heaven and said, Father, the hour is come. Glorify your Son so that your Son may glorify you. ² For you have given him power over all flesh, so that he may give eternal life to as many as you have given him. ³ This is life eternal: to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

⁴ I have glorified you on the earth. I have finished the work that you gave me to do. ⁵ And now glorify me, Father, with your own self – with the glory that I had with you before the world was.
